Selecting the right rehab facility is crucial for a successful treatment plan. In this blog, we’re letting you know what to look for when finding the right rehab centre.
Deciding to start a rehab plan is the first step to a happier and healthier life. While it can be a daunting experience, it is also the start of a new chapter for you. You must choose the right rehab centre; otherwise, you may not have access to the right care and support.
There are so many aspects to consider when it comes to choosing a rehab centre, and we’re here to help.
Check the CQC rating
The first and one of the most important elements to look at is the rehab centre’s CQC rating. The CQC is also known as the Care Quality Commission. They are responsible for visiting care settings and rehab centres to ensure that they are compliant and meet the necessary standards of care and management.
Every rehab centre should have a CQC rating, which can be easily accessed online. Additionally, you can ask the centre what their rating is, or find it on their website. The ratings range from Outstanding to Inadequate for rehab services.
Acquiesce rehab centre in Bolton is the highest-rated centre in England with the best outcomes, rated ‘Outstanding’ by the CQC. This highlights our excellent care standards and comprehensive treatment approaches.
Read honest reviews from ex-clients
It’s absolutely vital that you read honest reviews of the rehab centre you plan to use. This can enable you to gain a better understanding of the facility’s care, staff quality and overall environment. It can also give you an idea of what to expect if you choose to work with them.
Be sure to read both positive and negative reviews for a balanced approach.
Acquiesce has over 220 excellent reviews on Google, which enable prospective clients to get a feel of what it’s like to attend. It also provides them with an idea of how life might change following rehabilitation.
Residential rehab or outpatient treatment?
It’s crucial that you consider all of your options when it comes to rehab. Some centres may only offer outpatient rehab, which means you leave at the end of the day and continue living at home. While this can allow for more normality during your treatment, it can make it difficult to differentiate between rehab and normal life.
In contrast, residential rehab or inpatient treatment programmes mean that you leave home and live at a clinic in a more structured environment. Many rehab centres are based in the countryside, away from distractions, but this can also make it harder to reintegrate back into the community once the treatment is finished. Alternatively, a rehab centre based in a city is a great idea, as it allows you to avoid shutting yourself away from everyday life.
Location of the rehabilitation centre
The location of a rehab centre is important, and for many, it can be a significant deciding factor. Acquiesce rehab centre is based in Bolton, a great location for those searching for rehab across England. We have supported clients from Leeds, London and further afield.
In addition to supporting UK clients, we have also worked with clients internationally. We are proud that our clients’ locations are never a barrier to our care. No matter where you live, we can help.
While you may find it helpful to use a clinic nearby, you really need to consider which one is offering the most comprehensive support for your addiction.
Techniques used in the rehab programme
Many techniques can be used for rehabilitation treatment, and a lot of it depends on what the addiction is. Some addictions may require a detox before rehab, in which case, we can help to organise this with one of our trusted detox partners. They ensure a medically supported detox before beginning your rehab treatment programme, allowing you to manage withdrawal symptoms safely. Find out more about alcohol addiction treatment.
Once you are ready to begin rehab, you should receive a personalised treatment plan. In many cases, this will include a combination of one-to-one therapy, group therapy sessions and more. The right rehabilitation centre should incorporate time for relaxation and exercise, enabling you to maintain a positive state of well-being.
Some people respond well to cognitive behavioural therapy techniques, which enable you to assess your behaviours and identify ways to challenge them in the future. Acquiesce ensures holistic therapies, enabling you to heal physically, emotionally and spiritually. Find out more about how addiction affects mental health.
Amenities available during addiction treatment
When searching for the perfect rehab centre, you should look at the different amenities available, for example, spaces you can enjoy and gardens.
We provide all clients with a welcoming and comfortable private, single room, spacious living room, and kitchen, as well as additional amenities. We ensure that you have everything you need so that you can focus on your recovery journey.
Aftercare support for addiction recovery
Aftercare is really important as it can help to reduce the risks of relapse, which most commonly occurs just a few months after rehab ends. Some centres will not offer any aftercare support, which can be challenging for clients.
Acquiesce continues to care for you long after treatment. During the last seven days of treatment, we work on an exit plan for you to help prevent relapse. Then, we remain in contact with you for three months post-rehab, and you have access to your practitioner’s phone number so that you can contact them any time.
We have also introduced an exclusive members’ area for people who have been through the transformative journey of Acquiesce. In this area, we host weekly Zoom meetings and encourage previous clients to share celebrations and challenges associated with their recovery. Read our blog on why aftercare is just as important as rehab.
Costs of addiction treatment
Cost is a significant factor for many people considering rehabilitation. We recommend creating a list of all the elements listed above and then comparing the costs accordingly. Remember that you need to ensure any reputational claims can be backed up, for example, a CQC rating and that you are being supported by reputable professionals.
Acquiesce is an excellent rehab centre with a success rate of 98%, which is much higher than the national average of 60-70%. We are also the lowest-cost private rehab centre by far.
When you choose us for your rehab journey, you can rest assured that you’re in safe hands and working with people who genuinely have your best interests in mind, whether you’re attending for drug rehab, alcohol rehab or something else.
